The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador has announced that the new 164-bed acute care hospital in Corner Brook has advanced to the next stage of the procurement process.

Following a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), which was issued on January 12, 2018, Atlantic Healthcare Partnership and Corner Brook Health Partnership will advance to the next stage of the procurement process and will shortly receive the Request for Proposals (RFP) documents.

Construction of the new 145-bed long-term care home began in November with final concrete being poured for the foundation of the building over the next few days as crews prepare for the installation of structural steel. The home will open in 2020 and help meet demand for long-term care in the region and make better use of resources at Western Memorial Regional Hospital.

“In addition to providing residents with the care and services that they deserve, government’s investment in a new hospital and long-term care centre on the west coast will provide significant employment opportunities for Newfoundlanders and Labradorians,” said Gerry Byrne, MHA for Corner Brook. “I look forward to the completion of these important projects for Corner Brook, and the entire western region of the province.”
